Also agree with Cesar^Geronimo's post that there are different kinds of intelligence. For instance would an autistic who can do large calculations in his head but can't speak a coherent sentence be considered intelligent? There are all sorts of intelligence but I think to be considered intelligent that would require intelligence across a range of things.
Lets see she's hot and has a degree in a high earning field and little common sense... Sounds like my kind of woman. So Andy is she available.
What about creativity? How much does that factor into intelligent thought? How do you measure creativity?
I think of intelligence like a 3 dimensional bell curve (ellipsoid?). IQ scores allows the test giver to see what he wants to see. Sure, I get annoyed by stupid people like the rest of us, but I figure if they can survive in life and still be moronic, then they must be doing something right....
Why do you mention their physical measurements. "5'6''" "90 lbs." LOL. Are you a high school wrestling coach? Or are you a friend of Bill Brasky? "Fourth: Well, Brasky shows up.. and you know he's a big fella. Third: Goes about 7'8", 530. Fourth: Well, he's standing right between me and my daughter at the ceremony. He's got no right to be there, but he's drunk and he's Brasky! Well, long story short: the priest accidentally marries Brasky and me! [ the guys laugh ] Off! Off! Off! We spend the weekend in the Pocono's - he loves me like I've never been loved before! Second: Best damn salesman in the office! Together: Bill Brasky!! Third: You know how Brasky served three tours in 'Nam? Fourth: Uh-huh! Third: Well, I'm in Corpus Christi on business a month ago, and I had this eight-foot tall Asian waiter.. which made me a little curious, so I asked him his name, and sure enough it's Ho Tran Brasky! First: To William Robert Brasky! Second: Oh, yeah! Fourth: Hey, you ever go camping with Brasky? Third: Many times. First: I went camping with Brasky, his wife, and his daughter Debbie! Third: Debbie Brasky? First: Debbie Brasky. She's 7-years-old, goes about 3'5", 55 pounds. So, I'm in the back of a pickup with Bill Brasky and a live deer! Well, Brasky, he grabs the deer by the antlers, looks at it and says, "I'm Bill Brasky! Say it!" Then he squeezes the deer in such a way that a sound comes out of its mouth - "Billbrasky!" It wasn't exactly it, but it was pretty good for a deer!"

Creativity is how you show other people you are intelligent. Other people have mentioned that intelligent people can learn quickly or be able to think abstractly or whatever.. But the only way to show that you are intelligent is through your creativity - like Einstein with the physics theories, Stephen King with the novels, etc.
